"Are you better off than 5 years ago?"
Democrats could use this simple slogan very effectively if they wanted. Are you safer now than 4 years ago? Do you think the country is going in the right direction? Is our military stronger now than 5 years ago? Is this the best we can do?

Simple questions to win the next elections. Forget policy white papers, etc. Keep it simple stupid. As a new poster said in another thread, you go to the election with the voters you have, not the voters you wish you had. :)

2. I guess we can respond or ignore this theory...
If I believed it entirely, it woud be difficult to even post here. I don't doubt there were shenanigans going on but how did Kerry win any states at all with your theory??

3. Some states do not have crooked electronic counting machines. Some were
too big of a margin to steal. They stole Ohio New Mexico and Florida for sure. aWoL only 'won' by one state. They stole at least 3. You figure it out.

4. I agree we need to get a paper trail...
There were definitely signs of theft in those states. People have to have faith in the system or we have nothing.

5. They Stole As Many Votes as They Needed
They intend to steal 2006, 2008 and all future elections as well.

It is obvious that they don't even try to appeal to anybody except
their rabidly bigoted base anymore. Why do you suppose that is?

6. You are on target!!
The repugs are so much better at sticking to their message and keeping it simple. We must take that page from their playbook.
